Warrior Abilities

Warrior, Barbarian, and Knight Class Abilities

Warriors are typically melee fighters, although they can specialise into ranged weapons also. Class types that use these abilities are Warrior, Knight & Barbarian. The specialisation classes for Warrior includes Bard, Battle-Mage, Death-Knight, Divine-Knight, Ranger, Weapon-Master.

Warriors have a few important skills to develop, firstly the usual: any weapon and armour skills, plus gauge foe, which can be increased by the ability of the same name, and combat expertise. The first helps to gauge the fighting abilities of the antagonist, and is best increased by first observing and then fighting as many different races and creatures a possible. The second allows for better use of tactics, ground, conditions, thus reducing negative status effects that can apply, and eventually the correct use of supply, logistics and strategy for war-bands, battle-groups and armies.
